Amazon Prime Video has had some amazing blockbuster hits, from The Boys to Reacher, and so on. But tucked away in its vast library are shows that critics adored and fans still rave about, yet never quite reached mainstream recognition—and these are the ones you need to watch now. 6 Undone (2019—2022) When I first watched Undone, I was immediately mesmerized by the animation style. It utilizes what’s known as rotoscope animation, which involves layering live-action performances over hand-drawn visuals. The series creates a dreamlike atmosphere where reality and imagination constantly collide. The story follows Alma (Rosa Salazar), a woman…

Alien: Earth expertly recaptures the horror that the franchise is known for, but it also reminded me that paranoia is so inherent in so much fiction. Luckily, there are so many other wonderful shows and movies that remind you that a little paranoia and distrust are healthy things. 6 The X-Files Watch The X-Files on Hulu The ultimate series about paranoia and a healthy distrust of those in power, The X-Files captured the nation’s imagination and fear during its run. Focused on everything from government conspiracies to controlling the population to secret plans for an alien invasion, this show truly…

People love Dexter because, while he’s a serial killer, he is also an antihero. The original series fell off in the later seasons, and the revival mini-series made things worse. But with Dexter being resurrected, maybe the third time’s the charm. The rise and fall of the original Dexter series Watch Dexter on Paramount Plus In 2006, Showtime aired Dexter, where the titular character (played by Michael C. Hall) works for the Miami Metro Police Department as a blood spatter analyst by day. But when nighttime comes around, he is a serial killer the media later dubs “The Bay Harbor…

Your smart TV’s USB port isn’t the universal charger it pretends to be. Misuse it, and you may end up with corrupted drives, fried gadgets, or a TV that refuses to power on altogether. 8 Old gaming consoles without power regulation Older gaming consoles were never designed to pull power from a modern TV’s USB port. Many of them draw current unevenly or more than the port can safely provide. When that happens, the console may fail to start, or worse, the strain can damage the TV’s internal components. Evan-Amos/Wikimedia Unlike a dedicated power adapter, the TV’s USB connection has…

Using Google TV isn’t too difficult, but some of its default settings can be slightly annoying. Autoplaying previews, crowded home screens, and slow startups can disrupt your experience, but the good news is that it only takes a few minutes to fix these issues. 8 Mute system sounds One of the first things you’ll notice about Google TV is that it makes a sound almost every time you press a button on your remote. Scrolling through apps, navigating through menus, or selecting something—all trigger a small chime. For those who love this kind of feedback, this may not be a…

There’s something tantalizing about true-crime documentaries, especially ones featuring seemingly ordinary people. It’s chilling and terrifying to think any random person you pull off the street could be capable of committing these crimes against humanity. 5 American Murder: Laci Peterson Watch American Murder: Laci Peterson on Netflix Laci Peterson and Scott Peterson seemed like the perfect, loving couple. She was so sure Scott was “the one,” she told her mother she’d be marrying him shortly after she gave Scott her number. That kind of love for someone is powerful, but American Murder: Laci Peterson doesn’t have a happy ending, nor…

Knowing how to use Google TV isn’t too complicated, but getting the most out of it takes a little exploration. Once you do, your viewing experience can become faster, smarter, and more personalized. 6 Install apps directly from your phone or PC Much like an Android phone, Google TV has its own Play Store where you can browse and install new apps. However, using the TV remote to navigate through menus and type out searches is far less seamless than on a phone. Also, if you’ve enabled apps-only mode on your Google TV to hide recommendations and simplify the home…

Artificial intelligence, or AI, is the phone world’s new favourite buzzword. Almost every upcoming phone has plans to incorporate machine learning and large language models in some form or another, and the first to do so are already on sale. But what are the best AI phones – and the features they bring actually worth having? I’ve used a bunch of phones with AI on board, and a handful more that offload their AI processing to the cloud. The best AI smartphones have a mix of both. You’ll even find AI cameras and AI image editing on certain flagships. Some…
